Videos like these are why the Met is one of my favorite places on the planet and somewhere I habitually visit. I love the variety in subject matter and adore these in-depth videos. I would like to see more lectures and discussions about all things Met.

This was fabulous! I had no idea the amount of work that goes into the gardens and holiday decorations was so extensive. I certainly will appreciate it even more now. Thanks for all you do!

I went to the Cloisters in the first week of December 2022
No one I asked knew about these holiday decorations
Was I too early Or was this project impacted by the Pandemic?
I love to see each visit from CA no matter what

[@metmuseum]

Yes! The gardens are so inspirational. Thank you for watching.

The Cloisters is one of my favorite museums but I’ve never visited during the holidays. When do you usually start “decking the halls”? I’d like to come see the decorations.

500 views and no comments ! On such an informative and interesting video, such a shame.

[@metmuseum]

Thanks, Pavan! We appreciate the feedback and your viewership.

Would love to see era appropriate garden carts.I found the modern carts quite jarring visually.
